Emerald designed and made this baby blanket for a friend. Simple squares and half square triangles, but the colorful background makes it pop.
Tied with yellow yarn. I like the tactile experience for babies since I remember finding comfort in rubbing the ties on my baby blanket. I think the yellow adds to the stars in the sky on this quilt.
For some reason the color is way off on this photo, but yellow binding is machine stitched on using a decorative stitch - stars of course. I like to stitch the binding on by machine for quilts that are going to be used a lot, especially baby blankets that get washed frequently. It makes them hold up better.
